I didn't really need these shoes, but for the price of the eBay listing, it was easy. I have Hoka's and On Cloudmonsters in my daily rotation and these Saucony shoes have been a welcome addition too. They are light, well padded, fast and quite attractive. A full-length nylon overlay front spring pushes the foot forward, while maximum cushioning makes this shoe ideal for long runs. These are great shoes at $160, but at $80 I didn't get a chance to get past them. Glad I chose her!
